Compared to the variety of monstrum reported around the world, reptilian cryptids are by far among the creepiest. The Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp is no exception.

Living in the swamplands of Lee County, South Carolina, reported sightings of this reptilian humanoid started in 1988. Recent reports this year clearly indicate the creature is still alive and well.

This creepy, tailed crawler is approximately seven feet tall and walks upright on two legs. Its face, hands and three-toed feet are covered with scales while dark hair covers the rest of its body. Thought to be incredibly strong, this cryptid supposedly can rip a car in two.

The original sighting was reported by Christopher Davis, a 17-year-old who saw the creature while driving home from work at 2 am. Davis had stopped to change a blown-out tire but knew he had bigger problems when he spotted the Lizard Man running towards him.

Davis tried to get into the car, but the creature grabbed ahold of him. Scrambling for his life, he managed to shake the creature’s grasp before driving off.

A few months after Davis’s encounter, a number of other sightings, as well as damage credited to the Lizard Man, occurred in a three-mile radius around the spot where Davis first saw the creature.

Since then there’ve been consistent sightings as well as photos and videos of the Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp. Most recently, in 2015, a woman took a single picture of the creature from her church in August. When the picture went viral, a hunter released a twenty-five-second video showing a glimpse of the creature moving through the trees.
